Understanding the Matrix / Receiver status lights
The Blustream Matrix and HDBaseT extender solutions include status LED indicators on both the Matrix and Receiver products to show all connec-
tions are active and to help diagnose possible problems.
Understanding the status lights:-
Blustream Matrix:
• The Yellow HDBaseT status link light will be off when the zone output has been turned off or there is a problem with the specific Matrix output.
• The Yellow HDBaseT status link light will blink when the zone output is on and working
• The Green HDBaseT link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Blustream Matrix and HDBaseT Receiver
• The Green HDBaseT link light will be lit when a there is an active HDBaseT Receiver connected to the Matrix
• The Green HDBaseT link light will be off when a there is no connection with a HDBaseT receiver
Blustream HDBaseT Receiver:
• The HDMI link light will be off when there is no connection with a display
• The HDMI link light will be on when there is an active connection with a display (NOTE - Not all HDBaseT RX feature a HDMI status LED)
• The HDBaseT link light will be off when there is no CAT cable/active HDBaseT connection on the RJ45 HDBaseT input
• The HDBaseT link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Blustream Matrx and HDBaseT receiver
• The HDBaseT link light will be lit when a CAT cable is connected to the HDBaseT RJ45 output on the Matrix and an active connection is
achieved with the Blustream HDBaseT Receiver.
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data is used by the source to find
out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display then from this information the source will discover what the best audio and video
resolutions need to be outputted.
While the objective of EDID is to make connecting a digital display to a source a simple plug and play procedure issues do arise when multiple
displays or video matrix switching is introduced because of the increased number of variables.
By pre-determining the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time need for EDID hand shaking
thus making switching quicker and more reliable.
Configuration of Matrix EDID settings can be acheived in one of three ways:-
1Using Matrix Front Panel Buttons (See below)
2Using EDID dip-switches located on the rear of the Matrix (For further details see ‘HMXL66 User Manual’)
3Using Supplied Blustream Matrix IR Remote Control (For further details see ‘HMXL66 User Manual’)
EDID Control
To change the input signal type using the Matrix front panel buttons press the following:-
Using Matrix Front Panel Buttons
a. Press MENU button
b. Panel will display ‘EDID settings’. Press SELECT button
c. Select the input you wish to fix the EDID on (1-8) or select ‘All’. Use UP/DOWN buttons to toggle selection and SELECT button to confirm
d. Select video resolution required (4K, 1080p, 3D etc). Use UP/DOWN buttons to toggle selection and SELECT button to confirm
e. Select audio resolution required (2CH, 5.1 or 7.1). Use UP/DOWN buttons to toggle selection and SELECT button to confirm
f. Press the ESC button to exit
